INNOVATIVE SOLUTIONS FOR CERAMIC AND STONE TILE

FINISHING, EDGE PROTECTION, VISUAL ENHANCEMENT, AND SLIP-RESISTANCE

Ceramic and stone tiles are brittle

materials whose exposed edges are

prone to cracking and chipping when

left unprotected. Tiled stair edges that

do not utilize appropriate trim pieces

are left vulnerable to chipping and

breaking and can create a slip hazard,

especially in exterior applications.

Schluter

stair-nosing profiles protect

exposed tile edges and improve

safety on tiled stairways by providing

slip-resistant wear surfaces and

increased visibility in both residential

and commercial applications.

Application and Function

Residential Applications

2.8 Schluter

-RONDEC-STEP is a

finishing and edging profile for ceramic

tile and natural stone installations on stairs

and countertops. The profile features a

trapezoid-perforated anchoring leg, which

is secured in the mortar bond coat beneath

the tile. The top of the profile features

a symmetrically rounded edge with

1/4" (6 mm) radius, which matches the

RONDEC profile, while the vertical leg of

the profile hides the exposed edge of

the sub-assembly. In addition, the profile

effectively protects tiles in the edge area

from mechanical and impact stresses.

The integrated joint spacer establishes

a defined joint cavity between the tile

and the profile. RONDEC-STEP is

suitable for residential applications,

e.g., stairs not exposed to heavy traffic,

and countertops. RONDEC-STEP is

available in two vertical leg lengths, 1-1/2"

(39 mm) and 2-1/4" (57 mm), to cover the

edge of the sub-assembly. The profile is

available in anodized aluminum with various

finishes to allow for decorative design and

interesting accents. Matching corners

are available.

2.11 Schluter®-SCHIENE-STEP is a

finishing and edging profile for ceramic

tile and natural stone installations on

countertops, stairs, and tile over tile

applications on walls. The profile features a

trapezoid-perforated anchoring leg, which

is secured in the mortar bond coat beneath

the tile. The top of the profile features

a vertical wall section that finishes and

protects the tile from damage, while the

vertical leg covers the edge of the sub-

assembly, top of the riser, or existing wall

tile edge.

SCHIENE-STEP is available in anodized

aluminum and brushed stainless steel

versions, which have different shapes and

intended uses. The stainless steel version

is available in three vertical leg lengths:

1-1/2" (39 mm) for countertops, 1-3/16"

(30 mm) for stairs, and 7/16" (11 mm) for

tile over tile applications. Matching inside

and outside corners and connectors are

Schluter®-TREP-GK is a variant of the profile without an anchoring leg. TREP-GK is adhered to existing steps, e.g., for retrofitting over damaged edges, eliminating the need to replace the entire step. TREP-G is available in 1-3/16" (30 mm) and 2-5/32" (55 mm) widths, while TREP-GK is available in 1-11/32" (34 mm) and 2-21/64" (59 mm) widths. Matching end caps are available.

S T AI R -N O S I N G PR OFILE S Maintenance Schluter® stair-nosing profiles require no special maintenance or care and are resistant to mold and fungi. Clean profiles using common household cleaning agents. Stainless steel surfaces exposed to the environment or aggressive substances should be cleaned periodically using a mild household cleaner. Regular cleaning maintains the neat appearance of stainless steel and reduces the risk of corrosion.
